Kubota LX3310 vs. Deere 2038R Tractor Cold Start & Why We Bought Kubota!

[@stevebradley7690]

Tim it was fun seeing y’all at the Morgans. Both my favorite channels together. I have a kubota L3301. I had it the last 4 years I’ve been with you. To me it’s not the tractor that makes a good channel it’s the good people in it. Thanks for all you and your family do!!😃 God Bless.

Hi Tim, I love the new tractor, of course I’m biased, I have a LX3310 myself. Regarding the preheat system on the 3310, the 2610 has glow plugs but the 3310 has an intake heater. That’s why they have different preheat procedures.

Good morning Tim. Interesting on the start differences. For me here in our cold temps, I always plug in the block heater for a while first. Not sure I have to, but I do - both the B2601 and the LX2610. The Lx2610 does not have the auto glow plugs - I have to hold it as I did wth the B2601 and it does not auto increase the RPMs - I start it at mid throttle (as I did with the B2601). Thanks for sharing. Great info. Enjoy the new tractor !

Good Morning GP!

[@adkfoothills3533]

I have friends that are mechanics on these machines, and whether or not they need it to start it is still better for the engines to not start as cold without the block heaters. So carry on knowing you are treating your machine better!

I live in North Dakota, Its 34 degrees below zero this morning ( not wind chill) and I have a front mount snow blower for my 2038R so use it a lot in the real cold months. I have a small insulated shed and when I want to use the tractor I turn on the electric heat for about 4-5 hours so the engine is warm, and hydraulics, power steering, battery etc. Everything is warm, then when done snow blowing I put the heat on for a couple hours to dry everything off. A block heater just warms up the engine, but I like to have everything warmed up.

[@mburke1211]

I’m a GM guy. I love green, too. But to be honest, I watch Tim and Christy more for their honest, well-thought out content, than for the color of the tractor. I genuinely enjoy hearing about the differences in the brands, and seeing first-hand demonstrations of their pros and cons. Can’t wait to see more.

[@utubota5522]

I see my tractor as a tool. I don't care which color you buy and own. Many tractors in this size category are good machines, and they are competitive enough that the differences are usually subtle. I own Orange, but have been watching your channel for some time.

Tim I'm a green man. Always have been since being on the farm as a kid. But doesn't matter what color your tractor or side-by-side is just enjoy and have fun.

I’m looking for the best fit for my needs I don’t care about color as long as it holds up, which bring me back to you, thank you for all the videos and different things you guys try to do with your tractors there isn’t a lot of info out there on them (real world use).

Congratulations on your new Kubota! Although I switched to Deere, they are great tractors, and I’m sure you (and “most” of us) will enjoy you exploring the differences both pros and cons. I remember how hard it used to be to deal with diesels in the cold. the new tractors are soooo much better. Even though my fuel supplier provides winter blend fuel, I still use the diesel anti-gel additive when it gets as cold as it is now. Cheap insurance...and old habits die slow sometimes😉 Thanks again to you and Christy for being the folks that you are, and for providing the enjoyable content that you do! Blessings to you both......and keep warm.

I enjoyed about an hour of pushing snow before it was time to leave. Can’t wait to get back there again.

[@MAroughTop]

It's amazing how invested some of us get on the brand of tractor. Personally I always wanted to buy a John Deere tractor...always admired them. However, after doing about a year of research (2019-2020) it seemed obvious for many reasons the Kubota LX2610 was a better option for my needs than any of the John Deere offerings. I took delivery of my orange tractor, Sept 2020, and have not been disappointed by it in any way, shape or form. In part that's because it's my first diesel tractor and I know no different. My point is, like much of life it's what you know and have that shapes opinion...most compact tractors on the market have advantages and disadvantages. It's up to each of us to do the use and product research before making our purchase. KZbin was a great source of information to me while shaping my opinions. Thank you for the knowledge imparted on this channel, it was and remains a great help.

[@mattromain7177]

Really enjoy the content, color doesn't matter. One implement I just dont see much in depth information on in the USA anyway is inverted snowblowers.

It was a tough choice for me on my 1st tractor. Green or orange. Ultimately it came down to ease of installing the loader and drive over mower deck.

Over here in N. IL, I just put a block heater on my '10 JD 3320 with 600 hrs on it. I've been starting it in 15-30 degree temps and it was firing right up, but with single-digit to sub-zero temps on us for weeks on end now, I figure a block heater would both help cold start and save some wear and tear on the engine components. It was not easy getting the engine plug broke loose, we had a 4ft breaker pipe on a large 3/4 ratchet with the adapter to 1/2 for the plug. It was also not easy getting access "straight on" we had to loosen clips and move the fluid return hose in 3 places. But we got it done! People that are "seriously" critical because of the color of the machine are just plain silly and bored. All equipment breaks, the most critical difference is having a dealer that makes things happen for parts and repairs. I think adding this Kubota side by side to the JD is a really great idea and it really should broaden your audience and allow for more great content! Good luck TTWT team!

[@iamdrako]

I am amazed at how well modern tractors startup in the winter. It gets nippy here in Maine. Being able to start my tractor to clear snow and move stuff in the winter is absolutely necessary. I was originally looking for a gas powered tractor just because of the cold temperatures. When I couldn't find anything modern, I grudgingly went to look at the diesels. I haven't had any issues at all. I do have electricity in my barn now, so I can hook up the heater. I put it on a Wi-Fi plug so I can turn it off and on from anywhere. I highly recommend this to anyone who has equipment in cold weather. I'm also very happy it doesn't need it. Did you put weight in the tires?

You should have had Holley, or is it Lil' Boy Blue, in that mix. I remember farming with IH diesels, 560, 806, 826, they were always cold blooded in the central Illinois winters. They were a catch 22, you couldn't pull'em till they warmed up, and they wouldn't warm up till you pulled them.

Oh man this is awesome. Anybody complaining about going away from deere must not have ever heard of Casey or Vinny lol

Actually it's his wife who is awesome. I can't imagine having like four tractors in the shed and suggesting we buy another one and getting a YES. I'm hesitant to put milk on the shopping list until the gallon is actually gone.

Hi Tim, I was watching your channel and I have a Kubota LX 2610, my opinion your number of subscriber will jump up ! keep up the good work and contents :)

Tim, you are exactly right about the newer diesels. Up until this last fall I've only ever used older ag diesel tractors. No comparison. The new ones start so easy. It was -35 here the other day. Plugged the tractor in for an hour, cracked right off.

Common rail fuel systems sure makes cold starting smoother and easier. My M6060 has never failed to start on the first attempt. Something I’m curious to see on your Kubota is if it regenerates more often in the winter then in the summer. I’ve noticed my tractor doing that. Guess I’ll have to wait a year too see.

[@TractorTimewithTim]

Haven’t seen much difference with the 2038r. I think 4 (maybe 5) regens in the 226 hours it has now.

While it's no secret that I love green, there's no problem with the orange, red, or blue. If it gets your job done, then it's a good tractor.
